The Vision may have found a new member in WWE. The heel group hasn’t had the best of luck lately, with injuries halting its momentum. The faction currently only has Bron Breakker and Austin Theory as active members. Bronson Reed has been out of action with an injury since March, and Logan Paul tore his triceps at Saturday Night’s Main Event last month, sidelining him.
The stable is currently at odds with its former leader, Seth Rollins. Breakker and Rollins first collided at Backlash, where The Dog of WWE picked up the win in a chaotic match. A rematch took place on the June 1 episode of RAW, where Rollins got his revenge on Breakker, defeating him.
Thanks for the submission!
The issues between the two parties continued on this week’s episode of RAW as well. Seth Rollins was part of a first-round match of the King of the Ring Tournament against Ricky Saints, Je’Von Evans, and Talla Tonga. Rollins was close to victory after taking out Saints with a stomp, but Austin Theory pulled the referee out of the ring before the three-count.
Montez Ford stormed out and neutralized Theory, but Bron Breakker took advantage of the distraction and hit a spear on Rollins. That said, by costing The Architect, The Vision inadvertently helped Je’Von Evans win.
After Rollins was taken out, Saints was going for the pin. However, The Young OG came at the last second and hit an OG Cutter on The Absolute to advance in the semifinals of the KOTR Tournament.
Evans has been a babyface since arriving to WWE. Fans adore the 22-year-old for his upbeat attitude. While The Young OG is perfect good guy material, the creative team could choose an unexpected route for him.
Je’Von Evans and The Vision?
The Young OG joining The Vision would certainly be a surprising development, but there are a few reasons why it could make sense. The faction is currently short on active members due to injuries, and adding a young star would help strengthen the group.
The timing is also interesting. Evans is coming off a big win after reaching the semifinals of the King of the Ring Tournament. Rather than continuing as an underdog babyface, WWE could use that momentum to take his character in a different direction.
Interestingly, there was a subtle tease for a heel turn for Evans. The Young OG challenged Penta for the Intercontinental Championship on the May 26 episode of RAW. Despite a valiant effort, Evans failed to dethrone the luchador. After the match, Penta raised the young star’s hand out of respect, but Evans pulled away in frustration and left the ring.
A heel turn would instantly give Evans a major storyline and freshen up The Vision at the same time. While there is no indication that such a move is imminent, the events on RAW may have planted the seeds for an unexpected alliance between The Young OG and the faction.
It will be interesting to see if Je’Von Evans can punch his ticket to the final of the KOTR Tournament.
